The Ocean's Eleven franchise is being rebooted for a third time with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, and it could fix a major series casting problem.
The Ocean's franchise is being rebooted with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling in the main roles, and it has the potential to fix the franchise's biggest problem. While Warner Bros. has the DCU, Harry Potter, and many other financially successful franchises, the Ocean's series is one of the studio's most reliable of them all.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Robbie and Gosling-starring Ocean's movie marks the third reboot of the series. It follows director Steven Soderbergh's 2000s Ocean's trilogy, which was a reboot of the 1960 original, and Ocean's 8, which was successful at the box office but was critically slammed for repeating the 2001 movie by the book and repeating the biggest problem the previous four movies had.
Ocean’s 11 Reboot Should Feature Both Male & Female Con Artists While Ocean's 14 has the perfect premise, it's yet to find its perfect cast, but the casting of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling is a promising start. The con artist teams in the Ocean's movies have never been made up of both female and male characters, but the two movie stars' casting hints that Warner Bros. is finally correcting that problem.
All 5 Ocean’s Movies Failed With Their All-Male/All-Female Teams While the original Ocean’s 11, which was released in the '60s, was made up of the Rat Pack, Soderbergh’s 2001 Ocean’s reboot could have easily introduced females into the group. There's no reason why Rusty, Reuben, or any other character couldn't have been a woman. And though Ocean’s Twelve added Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones into the mix, they weren’t officially part of the team.
Robbie and Gosling's chemistry must be off the charts, as they're playing Barbie and Ken in Barbie. The fact that they're returning in a movie together hints that they could be great on screen, which is promising for the Ocean's reboot. Between Robbie and Gosling's chemistry and the chance it could have a diverse and balanced mix of con artists, the Ocean's reboot stands a chance of being the best in the franchise yet.
